Captain Roland prides himself on ensuring that you have the best possible experience on every fishing trip!
The captain will take you to Jacksonville’s river, marsh, and coastal waters to catch the most delicious and exciting fish. Whether you’re after tailing Redfish, jumping Tarpon, or Flounder and Sheepshead for dinner, Capt. Roland will make sure you have an excellent time.
Capt. Roland loves sharing his knowledge and techniques with his clients, so feel free to ask any questions throughout the day. You can look forward to a relaxing day on the water, away from the stresses of daily life. Children are welcome aboard, so you can make it a family adventure!
All the necessary equipment, such as bait, tackle, rods, and reels, will be provided, as well as fishing licenses and ice. Additionally, fishing cleaning services are available on all charters. The captain will also provide bottled water, and it’s always a good idea to bring snacks and drinks for the journey.
Captain Roland has been fishing the St. Johns River since he was a young child. He has worked on head boats and commercial fishing boats since the age of 20, gaining valuable experience on the water. Now, he operates a 24’ Sea Chaser powered by a 2023 Mercury Pro XS that is super comfortable for the whole family!
Book a trip with Captain Roland for a day you’ll never forget!

3/4 Day Trip
My son and I had an amazing time on our charter fishing trip with Captain Bell. Even though my son got seasick, Captain Bell’s understanding and flexibility turned the day around. He adjusted the fishing plan with professionalism and care, ensuring we had a fantastic experience. My son is already excited to go again and insists on choosing Captain Bell. Highly recommend him for individuals and families looking for a fun, flexible, and memorable outing on the water!

Capt Bell was great, his knowledge and experience is second to none. He put us on fish quickly and worked hard to make sure our experience was pleasurable. We had my 5 year old grandson on board and Captain Bell was patient and work with him to make sure his trip was memorable. I would recommend Captain Bell every time to those who asked me who they should choose to go fishing with. A great time was had by all.

Capt. Bell made the day great. Fun to be around, knows his stuff. Made it a fun and totally stress free day. First time saltwater fishing and he has us hooked. So to speak. Great to work with and glad to help us beginners out. Taught us quite a bit about how to pursue this sport Will definitely be using him again. Just a great day all around.

Had a great day on the boat with Capt. Roland. Put ALL of us on fish after just a few minutes in the boat. Kingfish, snapper etc…… Quality boat and fishing equipment. Weather got a little rough on the way in but Capt showed his experience and we never had any concerns. I’d would definitely recommend Capt Roland.
